京尼平作为交联剂在天然生物材料改性中的应用

APPLICATION OF GENIPIN FOR MODIFICATION OF NATURAL BIOMATERIALS AS A CROSSLINKING AGENT

目的综述京尼平作为交联剂在天然生物材料改性中的应用及研究进展。方法查阅近年关于京尼平作为交联剂在天然生物材料改性中应用的相关文献,进行分析总结。结果天然交联剂京尼平交联效率高,细胞毒性显著低于传统人工合成的化学交联剂,交联后的生物制品稳定性强,抗酶解效果显著提高。结论京尼平有望替代人工合成的传统化学交联剂,为组织工程中天然生物材料的交联改性提供更好的选择。

Objective To review the application of genipin for the modification of natural biomaterials as a crosslinking agent and progress in research. Methods Domestic and foreign literature on application of genipin for the modification of natural biomaterials as a crosslinking agent was thoroughly reviewed. Results Genipin is an effective natural crosslinking agent with a very low level of cytotoxicity compared with conventional synthetic crosslinking agents. Tissues fixed with genipin can maintain a high level of stability as well as resistance to enzymatic degradation. Conclusion Genipin is a promising substitute for conventional synthetic crosslinking agents, which has offered an alternative for modification of natural biomaterials for tissue engineering.
